I joined Ausbiz to discuss the market’s strong reactions to earnings surprises this reporting season, the competitive advantages driving companies like the Commonwealth Bank of Australia ahead of rivals, and Nick Scali’s growth through strategic acquisitions. I also shared my broader market outlook, highlighting the importance of disinflation, economic growth, and liquidity for a bull market, while questioning the sustainability of liquidity in future gains. Listen to the full interview here: Ausbiz – should we be less certain on a bullish 2025 for now?

Yesterday, I joined Ausbiz to discuss market trends, noting that while disinflation and economic growth provide support, tightening liquidity could impact small caps this year. I highlighted real estate as an opportunity, where temporary setbacks, like the REA Group (ASX:REA) CEO’s resignation, may offer buying chances. Looking ahead, U.S. and China tensions and debt refinancing remain key risks, with history suggesting a potential market decline despite the bullish backdrop. You can watch my full interview here: Ausbiz – 2025 wildcards beyond the White House continue…

I joined Ausbiz to discuss the 2025 market landscape, exploring themes like whether the return of President Trump is driving market sentiment. I highlighted the disparity between the US’s GDP and its global market capitalisation, attributing it to sentiment around big-cap stocks like the “Magnificent Seven.” I also addressed China’s deflation and its impact on commodities like iron ore. Additionally, I pointed out opportunities in the small-cap space, particularly as Australia faces potential interest rate cuts this year.

I appeared on Ausbiz to review 2024 and talk about the outlook for 2025. Will the Magnificent Seven tech stocks continue their upward climb in 2025? Rising U.S. bond yields could potentially impact some of the share price returns of tech stocks in the U.S. market. I also discussed the potential in Australian small caps due to their underperformance relative to large caps.

Yesterday, I appeared on ausbiz to share my thoughts on the current bull market, including the potential for a correction in January or a broader pullback next year. We discussed how disinflation and economic growth have historically supported innovative companies with pricing power. I also touched on sentiment indicators like the “euphoriameter”, highlighting that while these can signal extremes, the S&P 500 has historically continued to rally after past peaks. continue…

In this morning’s Ausbiz episode, I discussed how generative artificial intelligence (AI) might ultimately benefit consumers more than shareholders. We explored the distinct roles within the AI landscape: “upstream” companies like Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) and Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) provide essential infrastructure, while “downstream” firms like Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), Google (NASDAQ:GOOG), and Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) apply the technology but face slowing profit growth. Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), interestingly, occupies a “midstream” position, balancing both infrastructure and application.  continue…

In yesterday’s interview with Ausbiz, we discussed the rising importance of private credit as a key asset class, with projections indicating it could double by 2028 to nearly $2.8 trillion. I explained that traditional 60/40 portfolios are becoming less effective due to the increased correlation between bonds and equities. By reallocating part of the fixed income exposure to private credit, investors can achieve higher returns and fewer losing years. A portfolio mix of 40 per cent equities, 30 per cent fixed income, and 30 per cent private credit not only enhances performance but also reduces volatility, providing greater portfolio stability without compromising equity exposure. continue…

In last week’s interview with Ausbiz, we discussed the recent accusations against Coles (ASX:COL) and Woolworths (ASX:WOW) for misleading shoppers about discounts. We explored how the new leadership at both companies, with female CEO’s, might bring a more nuanced and sensitive approach to crisis management. While Coles has taken a defensive stance, Woolworths’ more measured response could ultimately benefit their long-term brand value. Drawing from past examples like Qantas (ASX:QAN) and Exxon, I highlighted the importance of transparency and suggested that the supermarket that embraces change could gain a competitive edge in the market.

Last week, I appeared on ABC News to discuss what Coles (ASX:COL) and Woolworths (ASX:WOW) can do to rebuild their reputations after accusations of fake discount claims, which caused a drop in both share prices. Coles is set to defend itself to the Australian Compeititon & Consumer Commission (ACCC), but both companies must act quickly to regain public trust. One of them has the chance to rally community support by being the first to address the issues openly and make meaningful changes to their pricing strategies. continue…
